Kristoff St. John Is Returning to “The Young and the Restless”

Kristoff St. John is coming back to “The Young and the Restless.” The actor, who plays Neil Winters on the soap opera, will return to work next week after almost a five-month hiatus.

In October 2017, St. John left the show temporarily to undergo psychiatric treatment. The actor has discussed his battle with depression after the loss of his son, Julian, who died by suicide almost three years ago.

His absence was written into the show, by having Neil head to New York to help look after his son Moses – a child he shares with character Sofia.
